This four disc DVD features new commentary by George Lucas and cast and crew members, including director Irvin Kershner, actress Carrie Fisher, sound designer Ben Burtt and Industrial Light & Magic's Dennis Muren.

Disc 1, Episode IV A New Hope: Luke Skywalker, a young farmboy on Tatooine, is thrust into the struggle of the Rebel Alliance when he meets Obi-Wan Kenobi, who has lived for years in seclusion on the desert planet. Obi-Wan begins Luke's Jedi training as Luke joins him on a daring mission to rescue the beautiful Rebel leader Princess Leia from the clutches of the evil Empire. Although Obi-Wan sacrifices himself in a lightsaber duel with Darth Vader, his former apprentice, Luke proves that the Force is with him by destroying the Empire's dreaded Death Star.

Disc 2, Episode V The Empire Strikes Back: Three years later Imperial forces continue to pursue the Rebels. After the Rebellion's defeat on the ice planet Hoth, Luke journeys to the planet Dagobah to train with Jedi Master Yoda, who has lived in hiding since the fall of the Republic. In an attempt to convert Luke to the dark side, Darth Vader lures young Skywalker into a trap in the Cloud City of Bespin. In the midst of a fierce lightsaber duel with the Sith Lord, Luke faces the startling revelation that the evil Vader is in fact his father, Anakin Skywalker.

Disc 3, Episode VI Return of the Jedi: In the epic conclusion of the saga, the Empire prepares to crush the Rebellion with a more powerful Death Star while the Rebel fleet mounts a massive attack on the space station. Luke Skywalker confronts his father Darth Vader in a final climactic duel before the evil Emperor. In the last second, Vader makes a momentous choice: he destroys the Emperor and saves his son. The Empire is finally defeated, the Sith are destroyed, and Anakin Skywalker is thus redeemed. At long last, freedom is restored to the galaxy. A bonus Disc 4 includes the most comprehensive feature-length documentary ever produced on the Star Wars saga; and never-before-seen footage from the making of all three films, and much more.

    Sorry, George, Not This Time

    An open letter to George Lucas:Dear Mr. Lucas,I now own three copies of the Star Wars Trilogy: the original ltd. ed. letterbox version (at over $100); the THX letterbox version; and the Special Ed. letterbox version. In addition, I bought the Episod...e I VHS, despite the fact that I don't buy any other VHS titles anymore, having switched to DVD.You now offer up yet another rendition of the same material, only this time with 10 measly minutes of Episode II material, material you very well know will be the type of stuff your loyal consumers, like me, will want. The people who have bought over and over again are the ones to whom this is aimed, obviously, because single-time buyers couldn't care less about the 10 minutes of Episode II crap.Well, enough is enough. Money is no object, but my pride is, and you risk alienating those who are most interested in what you have to offer. From some of the posts, it appears that it's too late already.Someone who has bought your product three times over shouldn't have to pay again for 10 minutes of new stuff. And for being the biggest proponent of digital moviemaking, the fact that the Star Wars titles are unavailable on DVD ranks right up there with Hollywood's biggest hypocrisies.Quit milking and alienating your most loyal and ardent supporters.Tom GaylordChicago, IL Read more Less

    Pros: star wars story rocks

    Cons: not the original

    the good thing about the original star wars trilogy is it's originality and technological ingenuity. it's nice to see someone try to improve on an old work but we should be able to see the films in their true form, with cut outs and puppets.... instead we are stuck seeing a film of the passed with new digital crap that doesn't belong at all. there is no way that lucas could have the same vision as he had twenty years earlier. the "improvements" in the new edition add nothing to the story or the characters, they are simply sugar coating. cute crap that make children giggle for a second instead of having a chance to notice that great films can be made without digital effects and blue screen sets.
